Most brands don't have a content problem, they have a conversion problem. They're posting AI videos that look good but don't drive clicks, engagement, or sales. The output I deliver is the kind of work studios used to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars and months of production on. I produce it in hours, for a fraction of the cost, and it's built to perform, not just impress. That's where I come in. I help brands turn ideas into high-performing AI video ads, UGC-style content, and short-form videos designed to convert across TikTok, Instagram Reels, Meta, and YouTube Shorts. -WHAT I CREATE • AI video ads for TikTok, Meta, and YouTube • AI UGC ads (creator-style, natural, high-converting content) • Short-form video ads (Reels, Shorts, TikTok) • AI product videos & eCommerce ad creatives • AI spokesperson & avatar videos (HeyGen-style) • SaaS explainer videos & app demo videos • AI social media content & digital marketing videos -WHY MY VIDEOS PERFORM Most AI-generated videos fail because they: • Look generic or robotic • Miss strong hooks • Ignore platform behavior • Focus on visuals instead of performance I combine AI video creation + performance marketing + storytelling to produce videos that: ✔ Capture attention in the first 1–3 seconds ✔ Feel native to TikTok, Instagram, and Meta ads ✔ Communicate value quickly and clearly ✔ Drive engagement, clicks, and conversions Because brands don’t scale from “nice visuals” — they scale from creative that performs. -MY PROCESS I handle the full process from concept to final delivery: • Creative strategy & ad concept development • Scriptwriting & hook creation • AI video generation (UGC, product, cinematic) • AI voiceover & audio production • Video editing, captions, and motion design • Optimization for paid ads and social media platforms -TOOLS & AI WORKFLOW AI Video: Veo3, Sora, Runway, Kling, Pika AI Avatars: HeyGen, Synthesia Voice: ElevenLabs Image Creation: Midjourney, Leonardo AI Editing: Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, CapCut --INDUSTRIES I WORK WITH • eCommerce & Shopify brands • TikTok Shop sellers • SaaS & tech startups • Coaches & digital product creators • Marketing agencies & content teams • Beauty, fashion, lifestyle, and consumer brands --WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT ✔ High-converting video ads ✔ Scroll-stopping hooks ✔ Clean, realistic AI visuals ✔ Platform-optimized content (TikTok, Meta, YouTube) ✔ Fast turnaround & clear communication ✔ Performance-focused creative strategy --WHY CLIENTS WORK WITH ME • AI Video Ads Creator + Strategist (not just an editor) • Strong understanding of TikTok Ads & Meta Ads • Experience with UGC, product ads & short-form content • Focus on results: CTR, engagement, and conversions • Scalable AI video production systems -LET’S WORK If you’re looking for AI video ads, UGC content, or short-form videos that actually drive results — not just views Send me a message.

🚀 18+ years in advertising, including ad agency experience 🎬 Methodical creative strategy + award-winning editors and designers 🎯 Agency-level quality, without the juniors or cookie-cutter playbook A lot of clients come to me after disappointing agency experiences - slow communication, generic strategy, too many handoffs, and more. That's not how I work. My past clients say that I deliver senior-level strategy and funnels, plus high-end creative, building creative strategically rather than churning out AI-heavy variations with no direction. I have helped build and manage campaigns for brands spending up to $10K/day on ads, across both ecommerce and lead generation. Whether you are trying to scale, improve efficiency, or fix an account that feels stuck, I focus on building a plan that is clear, custom, and grounded in what actually drives performance. What I do best: ✅ Meta Ads / Facebook Ads management ✅ Instagram ads strategy ✅ Paid social creative strategy ✅ Ad production with award-winning editors and designers ✅ Conversion-focused copywriting ✅ Ecommerce growth and local lead gen ✅ Google Ads How I work: 1) Creative-led testing I build and test creative based on angles, hooks, offers, and formats that fit how Meta works today, so we can find what scales instead of guessing. 2) Full-funnel thinking Ads do not work in isolation. Creative, audience, messaging, landing page, and offer all need to align. 3) Smart volume, not junk volume I can support serious creative output when needed, but the goal is not to flood the account with mediocre assets. The goal is better testing, faster learning, and stronger performance. 4) Senior strategy, start to finish No bloated process, no junior handoffs, no one-size-fits-all approach. Just experienced strategy, thoughtful execution, and clear communication. If you want a freelancer with the strategic depth of an agency, but more care, more flexibility, and better creative focus, we should talk.

I’m a Performance Ad Creative Strategist & AI Creative Producer specializing in Meta, TikTok, and YouTube ads that actually convert. I build scroll-stopping static and video creatives engineered for measurable results - high CTR, strong hook rates, low CPA, and maximum ROAS - not just pretty designs. Using AI-native workflows (ie. Midjourney, Kling, Runway, Google Veo 3, Nano Banana Pro), I function as a one-person creative department that delivers 15–30+ high-performing ad variations per month. What I deliver for clients: • High-converting Meta & TikTok ad creatives (static, carousel, story, and short-form video) • UGC-style videos, founder-led concepts, problem/solution, and before/after ads • Rapid hook development, angle testing, and structured creative testing frameworks • Full AI-powered production systems that let brands test and scale winners fast • Competitor research, winning angle identification, and performance-driven iteration Trained under top AI creative leaders Billy Boman and Rourke Heath, and an early adopter of generative AI since 2019, I combine direct-response marketing psychology with cutting-edge AI tools so you get premium creative volume at speed, all without sacrificing strategy or results. If you need ads that stop the scroll and actually make you money, let’s talk.

I help service-based businesses turn Facebook & Instagram (Meta) Ads into booked appointments, paying customers, and real revenue. I’m not just a freelancer running ads from theory. I co-own a local service business that we grew from zero to over $30k/month primarily through Meta Ads, lead generation funnels, and automated follow-up systems. Along the way, I learned something important: Cheap leads do not matter if they do not turn into revenue. A lot of freelancers can launch a Facebook Ads campaign. Far fewer understand the full customer acquisition system: -offer positioning -ad creative -lead generation -CRM automation -follow-up -appointment booking -nurture sequences -conversion tracking -sales process optimization That is the gap I help businesses solve. I specialize in: -Facebook Ads -Instagram Ads -Meta Ads campaign management -GoHighLevel CRM setup -automation workflows -lead nurture systems -funnels -appointment booking systems -social media marketing -conversion-focused follow-up I have: -generated thousands of leads across dozens of industries -helped generate hundreds of thousands of dollars in sales -managed over $1.4M in ad spend while working at a digital marketing agency -built complete lead generation and follow-up systems from the ground up I treat your ad spend like it was my own because I know what it feels like to run a real business with real overhead, payroll, and pressure for results. If you need someone who understands both lead generation AND the backend systems that turn leads into revenue, I’d be happy to discuss your project.

Most D2C brands aren't losing because of their product. They're losing because their creative has no system behind it. I build that system. Research, angle development, hooks, scripts, AI-generated ad creatives, the whole thing, so you can put more concepts in market and find winners faster. Here's how I work: I start by studying your market: competitors, what's already running, what customers actually say. From that I pull angles and hooks specific to your buyer and where they are in their decision process. Then I write the briefs and concepts, UGC scripts, static ad concepts, AI-generated visuals, ready for production. I also use AI to produce high-quality creatives at a lower cost than traditional production, which means more volume, more tests, more data. If you're a D2C brand running paid social and burning through creative without much to show for it, that's the problem I fix. Let's talk.
